Fancy Videogame PartyTonight at the AGO, as part of the ongoing Vector fest (check out the links below for more), you can hit up the indie games at the "very best multi-player, party, and physical videogames from around the world for one night only... part arcade, part club night, part art gallery." Plus, fancy is in the title. Weston Family Learning Centre, AGO (317 Dundas St W), Friday, February 21, 8pm.

The Artist ProjectThe Artist Project (TAP) challenges the typical art fair format until February 23 at the Better Living Centre. Here, you'll find the artists themselves in the booths - over 250 curated contemporary artists from Canada and around the world. This means you get to meet and hopefully buy work directly from the people behind it. Not all of the art is great (let's be honest, there's a lot of crap out there), but the concept is great. There are also various special events and programming taking place. Check out our preview of the exhibition here. Feb 20 - 23, Better Living Centre.

Simulators IIThis upcoming group show at Angell is going to be a good one, and may just make you a fan of digital art if you haven't been won over thus far. The nine artists in the exhibit include Rafael Ochoa (who we named a top artist to watch in 2014)'s digital paintings. Ochoa is a young Toronto artist who, using multiple digital-imaging software programs for each piece, messes around with classical imagery, bridging antique still lives and epic paintings in gilded frames with The Sims universe. Expect many more explorations along these lines in the show, which opens Friday night at 6pm. February 21 - March 22, Angell Gallery (12 Ossington Avenue).

Men's Gold Medal Hockey Pancake Breakfast at CBCHit up the CBC for Olympic hockey and a free pancake breakfast - which will only last as long as quantities last, so that 7am start time is serious business. CBC Broadcasting Centre (250 Front St. West), Sunday Feb 23, 7am.

Stephen Malkmus and the JicksIndie rock icon Stephen Malkmus, the frontman of 90s legends Pavement, brings his band The Jicks to crowd surf their way around Lee's Palace.

Big Knife Little Knife, Bleeding Rainbow, Hunters, Jigsaw YouthThe event page reads: no bros / no jerks / no cops. So double check that you make the cut before you decide to include yourself in this party. The bands are from all over the place, Montreal, Philly, NYC, Toronto, and there's nothing quite like making bands feel at home than a tightly packed little show with lots of beer. Also by excluding bros, jerks and cops. Bikini Kill songs will be played, and that's all the incentive you need. Saturday, February 22, Unit 2, 163 Sterling Rd, 8pm, $8.

Festival of New Spanish CinemaThe Festival of New Spanish Cinema (FoNSC) is now six years old, but this is the traveling show's first stop in Toronto. The self-described leading showcase in North America for "the best in contemporary Spanish film" brings Toronto five premieres, including "the latest, most exciting films and allowing you to discover and share your love of Spanish cinema." More of a month-long series than a festival, FoNSC will screen a film every Wednesday evening at The Royal until the end of March. February 26 - March 26; The Royal)

The Rhubarb FestivalOn now, The Rhubarb Festival turns 35 this year, a milestone anniversary for the progressive and interdisciplinary theatre event. It happens in the shadow of government funding cuts, in the amount of $20,000-$25000, which arrived without any sort of explanation as to why the festival no longer qualifies for the Building Communities through Arts and Heritage programme. Buddies has soldiered on, curating a sprawling collection of performances under the direction of Laura Nanni that activate a variety of different spaces throughout the city. Read our preview of the year's highlights here. Now until Sunday, February 23, Buddies in Bad Times Theatre (12 Alexander St), free - $20.
